Yes I am 7 months into my surgery and I had long hair and cut it right after since I was losing a lot of hair I wash my hair twice a week because I lose my hair I heard from a friend that her surgery 2 years ago that the first year you lose a lot and then it should stop and start growing the hair back I am hoping this happens to me since I am also scared that I will not have enough hair later on I do take biotin to help but haven't seen that it helps much hoping after the year my hair doesn't fall as much as it does now

Was frustrated at first but now I am down 66 lbs and down 5 pant sizes

I have lost 66 lbs since my last weigh last week it's been 4 months I am excited down to a size 12-14 from a size 18-20 it's been rough and frustrating at the beginning but now I am very happy patient and pleased with the results

thank you everyone for the nice words and support i just didn't know what to expect?? but as i get familar with this site and read other peoples experiences i am starting to learn that i am going at a good pace and that i am doing the correct thing (i hope..lol) i am just going by what i was told at my dr's office and on my next appointment i will let them know that they shouldn't say that if it can vary on the person and weight. i think that sometimes i don't get enough Protein or not enough fluids (water) and that maybe that is the reason why i don't lose the weight but now that i have heard and read all these stories i am pretty confident that i am doing good. thank you everyone

I GOT SLEEVED ON AUGUST 24, 2012 AND SINCE THEN I HAVE ONLY LOST 25LBS. I WEIGHED MYSELF YESTERDAY AND HAVE NOT LOST ONE POUND.. NOT SURE WHAT I AM DOING WRONG I AM NOT EATING THE WRONG THINGS, DRINKING ALL MY PROTEIN AND DRINKING LOTS AND LOTS OF WATER. ITS MAKING ME SO FUSTRATED BECAUSE I REALLY THOUGHT THAT THE OUTCOME THE FIRST MONTH WAS GOING TO BE DRASTIC AND I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO LOSE MORE THAN 40 POUNDS THE FIRST MONTH AND I AM STILL IN THE 250s AND NOT FEELING GOOD AT ALL...DOES HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM AS ME ????

i am getting a bit fustrated i got sleeved on august 24th and since today i have only lost 25 lbs and i am stuck i don't eat anything outside or extra of what i have to and been drinking lots and lots of water.. i am kinda getting stressed over not losing anything i even returned to work and not many people even noticed my change... is there something that i am doing wrong or i am just stressing it...

i had my surgery august 24th and getting really tired of drinking only chicken broth and wanted to know if today being my 6th day after surgery if its too soon to start the puree stage of eating
